Self Improvement Tips & Resources

What are the Self help strategies for SOCIAL ANXIETY DISORDER ???? Any personal experience ??

Practice. Every time you go out smile and say Hi to a stranger. Anxiety does make people feel very confused at times. By selling Hi to people that you don’t have any connection to it doesn’t impact your life. At the same time it does give you practice in speaking to others.

There are many chances throughout your day to practice this.

I have anxiety also and I make sure to speak to someone every time I go out.

It does get easier as time goes by. Older people are good to practice with because a lot of them are lonely and they miss the times when people where more friendly.

Can someone tell me what does this means? Thank you!

basically how can your work help you realize your inner and outer potential of who you are.

For example, I work with a lot of people on a daily basis. Eventually I learned that I enjoy helping solve people’s problems and making them happy. As a result of my work, I learned that I am a very enjoyable person to be around..and I love socializing ..

hope that helps.

She would spread her legs for a hobo if he gave her a cigarette. I joked with her that we would have to bury her in a Y-shaped coffin although the humour was entirely lost on her. I don’t understand her. I wish she would start respecting herself and I wish there was something I could do to help her in this regard. She’s an adult though and has her own life to live I realise. This is mainly the reason I’ve stayed out of her business but it just seems to have gotten out of hand. Some of these men she sleeps with are beyond disgusting. Has anyone else tried to help a friend or family member with something like this? How did you go about it? Thanks.

The best thing you can do is have a 1 on 1 talk with your sister. (Sincerely one on one), and maybe get some help from social work.

like help u in martial art , or like pagar loreng of the house or Jinn Harimau

there’s nothing wrong in learning any ilmu. Sins/ syiriks, etc, it all depends on the purpose of learning and how you gonna use it.

If you use it for good purposes, insyallah, its not a sin. BUT, if u are to possed with it, or if you think that because of your knowledge in learning it that helps u or protects u…thats syirik..

subhanallah…

martial art/ pagar loreng..should be ok..coz, that is consider tips / amalan that can protect us.. but, make sure it doesnt clash with our teaching and believes ok.

good luck!

I have little money as I am a college student but I got a guitar for Christmas over a year ago and have been trying to teach myself ever since. I am not getting very far. Help!

Think of something you do very well, and remember how you got there. Apply a similar approach.

For instance, if you’re a good painter and you practised by sketching celebrity faces, then a good way to teach yourself guitar is by playing along with simple songs ’til you get a repertoire, then change it, or improve on it, etc.

I have very low self esteem, and am working to fix this. Any suggestions would be nice.
i know what you mean i used to have really low esteem, due to some emotional problems, but i decided to work on it and started reading books on increasing your self esteem, eg you are all that,a great and powerful book, it was like an awaking for me, if your not really a book person , i suggest you help people who need help in whatever way, that`s a great way to boost your self esteem. a quick fix would be acting like you do have self esteem, it might seem weird at first but then it becomes a part of you. i really wish you good luck!

anybody know from where i can download this self help tack on sri sri voice?

It is a breathing and cleansing technique of Great Master Sri Sri Ravi Sankar.
Before practicing it get trained by the Master

I am doing doing self help/work on myself. I do feel loads better and changed a lot. However I am a bit confused. I know there’s confidence, self esteem and security. What is the difference between all three? I know insecure means you’re withdrawn from everyone but aren’t all 3 kinda the same?

In sense they are the same because all depend on each other. For instance, if you have low self esteem your confidence wont be much higher. As I see it, most essential for human psyche is self esteem, which is direct measure of how you see yourself. Confidence comes directly from self esteem, if you think you are good and can do something, you will have confidence you can do it. And if you think that you totally bad at something, you will obviously have low confidence in yourself that you can do it. And security depends on self esteem as well and on confidence too to some degree. If you think that you are attractive for other people, you will want to spend time with them and explore possible interactions with them. If you think that you are bad at talking with people you obviously will be trying to avoid contact with people and be insecure.
Hope I summed it up for you, have a nice day.

Just having the same routine every time will be a big help. Otherwise, it kind of depends on the age of the child and how much of these skills they already have. Also, it depends on what you can stand. Can you let a child cry herself to sleep? Or tell a little boy that he can’t get out of bed again until it’s time to get up? He might think that includes no trips to the bathroom and you’ll have to deal with that fallout.

I want to dye my hair, i usually use garnier nutrisse cream (dark brown), but this fades very very quickly, any other good makes that any one can tell me that:
Leaves hair healthy and keeps colour for longer.
Also if any one has used the schwarzkopf live hair dye please let me know what you thought!
Many Thanks!
Garnier 100% works really well, for me at least.
And it comes with a flippin’ amazing conditioner!
